Bug 238766 – sys-apps/portage-2.2_rc10 mirror usage removes SRC_URI components

• Product: Portage Development
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

So I just updated to portage-2.2_rc10 and tried out an ebuild from the gnome overlay (intltool).  It said it couldn't fetch it, and the URIs it was trying looked wrong.

A quick check between the two versions showed the following:

portage-2.2_rc9 # emerge -pf intltool

http://distfiles.gentoo.org/distfiles/intltool-0.40.4.tar.bz2 http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo/distfiles/intltool-0.40.4.tar.bz2 ftp://ftp.no.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/intltool/0.40/intltool-0.40.4.tar.bz2 ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/intltool/0.40/intltool-0.40.4.tar.bz2 ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/2.0.0/sources/intltool/0.40/intltool-0.40.4.tar.bz2 ftp://ftp.sunet.se/pub/X11/GNOME/sources/intltool/0.40/intltool-0.40.4.tar.bz2 http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/intltool/0.40/intltool-0.40.4.tar.bz2 

portage-2.2_rc10 # emerge -pf intltool

http://distfiles.gentoo.org/distfiles/intltool-0.40.4.tar.bz2 http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo/distfiles/intltool-0.40.4.tar.bz2 ftp://ftp.no.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/intltool-0.40.4.tar.bz2 ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/intltool-0.40.4.tar.bz2 http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/intltool-0.40.4.tar.bz2 ftp://ftp.sunet.se/pub/X11/GNOME/intltool-0.40.4.tar.bz2 ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/2.0.0/intltool-0.40.4.tar.bz2 

The gnome.org eclass contains the following for SRC_URI:

SRC_URI="mirror://gnome/sources/${PN}/${PVP[0]}.${PVP[1]}/${P}.tar.${GNOME_TARBALL_SUFFIX}"

Evidently, the components between the name of the mirror and the actual source file itself are being removed.  Couldn't figure out what was going wrong in the rc10 patch myself, but I'll be happy to provide any more information if it'd be of use?

Thanks, this is fixed in 2.2_rc11.
